Double Duty

Welcome to November!   I always like the "blessed" feelings that come knowing Thanksgiving is very soon.   Fall colors and sweatshirt temperatures are some of my favorite so I was thrilled when this week's challenge at ABC Challenge Blog allowed me to come up with another fun "fall-like" card.   It was a fun Tic-Tac-Toe choice and I chose:  Green Cardstock - Twine and Leaves.   If you get a chance, be sure to come join the fun!

Today, as the 5th of the month is also our SCS Crafty Gals Blog monthly blog hop.  This month Jacque challenged us to post a card that listed our "Fall Blessings",  to share what we're thankful for.   As I looked through my stamp sets as soon as I saw these cute little birds, I knew this was perfect for this month's challenge.   I'm very thankful for all the support I get from my family and friends!  It's always good to know they are there for me!   Be sure to check out all of the other SCS Crafty Gals (listed in the list to the right) Thankful challenges!

    What a great layout!! Maybe I should start a notebook to sketch layouts. I see them on blogs...admire them..but then stop short of re-creating them!!
